Mercury’s Low‐Latitude Boundary Layer: Identification of Distinct Proton Populations Using MESSENGER Spacecraft Data

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract We have performed a comprehensive analysis of Mercury’s Low‐Latitude Boundary Layer (LLBL) using data from the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft during its orbital phase. Using combined magnetic field and ion measurements, we identified 202 LLBL events and categorized them into three distinct ...

Turbulence-driven Anisotropic Acceleration of Energetic Electrons in Solar Wind Current Sheets

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
Coherent structures in the solar wind, such as current sheets, are widely recognized as potential sites for energy dissipation and particle acceleration.

Modulation of cosmic-ray ground-level enhancements by solar-wind stream interfaces: a case study [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae
Ground-level enhancements (GLEs) provide crucial insights into the acceleration and transport of solar energetic particles (SEPs). We present a comprehensive analysis of GLE 72, which occurred on 10 September 2017, coinciding with a solar-wind stream ...

Dust Grain Orbital Behavior Around Ceres

, 2003
Many asteroids show indications they have undergone impacts with meteoroid particles having radii between 0.01 m and 1 m. During such impacts, small dust grains will be ejected at the impact site.

The acceleration of energetic particles in the interplanetary medium by transit time damping [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1976
It has been reported recently by McDonald et al. (1976) that 1-MeV protons may undergo considerable acceleration in corotating streams. It has been suggested recently by Fisk et al. (1974b) that interstellar neutral particles which are ionized in the solar cavity may be accelerated in the solar wind and may account for the anomalous component that is ...

GIC‐Related Observations During the May 2024 Geomagnetic Storm in the United States

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The May 2024 geomagnetic storm was one of the most severe in the past 20 years. Understanding how large geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs) impact geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) within electrical power grid networks is key to ensuring their resilience.

Quantifying the Effects of Parameters in Widespread Solar Energetic Particle Events with EPREM

The Astrophysical Journal
The Energetic Particle Radiation Environment Model (EPREM) solves the focused transport equation on a Lagrangian grid in a frame comoving with the solar wind plasma and simulates the acceleration and transport of solar energetic particles (SEPs) in the ...

Modeling Solar Energetic Neutral Atoms from Solar Flares and CME-driven Shocks

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We examine the production of energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) in solar flares and coronal mass ejection (CME)-driven shocks and their subsequent propagation to 1 au. Time profiles and fluence spectra of solar ENAs at 1 au are computed for two scenarios: (1)

SH41B-2777: The acceleration of particles at propagating interplanetary shocks

, 2018
Enhancements of charged energetic particles are often observed at Earth following the eruption of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) on the Sun. These enhancements are thought to arise from the acceleration of those particles at interplanetary shocks forming ahead of CMEs, propagating into the heliosphere.

GLSP‐EDConvLSTM: Enhancing TEC Prediction Performance by Simultaneously Perceiving Local and Global Spatial Features

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Total Electron Content (TEC) is influenced by local and global scale factors: localized effects causing fine‐grained differences in small areas, and global‐scale effects driving synchronized variations across all over the world. This underscores the necessity of modeling both global and local features for high‐performance TEC prediction.
